Trump Melts Down As Fox News Turns On MAGA
Utterly ridiculous twaddle from a delusional cultist that’s all in on the loser felon just like he went all in on Tesla in November ‘21 at $400 a share.
The double standard exists, but is skewed so far right to sane wash his insanity constantly it’s dizzying.
He can be totally lawless, she must be totally flawless. That is absolutely how they are treated by the media.
An analysis from the extreme right wing hyper biased Media Research Center? Get real, you expect anyone outside the cult to give it a second’s thought?
For instance, every single broadcast media outlet gave some version of the headline “Trump speaks to packed house at MSG” despite photo and video proof he didn’t fill the stadium 1/4 full and entire rows of seats on the floor, right in front of the stage were empty, along with entire sections of seats and possibly the entire upper section. They reported that Harris filled the 30000 seat arena in Houston to capacity and beyond, but didn’t report the 1.2 million who tried to attend but couldn’t get tickets. Talk about lopsided coverage, real honest coverage would have asked what kind of piss poor planning led to this racist nazistic fiasco in NY, and why didn’t Harris book a bigger arena. At the same time they tend to repeat Trump’s claims about Harris without correction, just “he said ….” and leave it at that despite being easy to contradict his every dumb lie of the moment.
The main reason for the imbalance…your guy is a 34 time convicted felon, nearly 80 year old incontinent dementia patient with malignant narcissism, an adjudicated rapist, the self described partner in crime with Epstein and lover of quite young women just like Epstein (his words), fomented a coup and says he will again, stole top secret nuclear files and definitely gave them to Putin during one of dozens of illegal negotiations in private since leaving office, hasn’t strung together a cogent or true sentence in 8 years, and directs his cultists to physically attack the press as the enemy of the people…then wonders why they dared to actually report what he actually said in context and without deceptively editing it to look sane.
Ohhhh…a right wing blog repeated it? Must be true then. Never mind. 😂
TV Hits Trump With 85% Negative News vs. 78% Positive Press for Harris
One week before Election Day, a new analysis from the Media Research Center finds that broadcast evening news coverage of the 2024 presidential race has been the most lopsided in history. Since July, ABC, CBS and NBC have treated Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris to 78 percent positive coverage, while these same networks have pummeled former Republican President Donald Trump with 85 percent negative coverage. (See Methodology explanation at the end of this post.)
The difference in coverage between the two candidates is far greater than in 2016, when both Trump and then-challenger Hillary Clinton received mostly negative coverage (91% negative for Trump, vs. 79% negative for Clinton). It’s even greater than in 2020, when Joe Biden was treated to 66 percent positive coverage, vs. 92 percent negative for Trump.
The main reason for the imbalance: Since July, the Big Three have swamped their audiences with more than 230 minutes of airtime — virtually all of it negative

Harris & Obama denounce 'dangerous' Trump
😂 Nice try, I know you didn’t see a second of it…in reality the CNN town hall was so bad for the dementia riddled coward who skipped it and good for Harris that Harris converted multiple maggots on live tv, showing them it’s possible and you won’t “suddenly become black” or “become a woman” if you support Harris like your morons have been saying all summer. 😂
CNN “turned”!?! 😂 CNN turned maga in 2020, you know this but without “even cnn says” you have no one to quote so you ignore it. Every time you say it it’s like you are putting on a sign saying “I’m a dishonest baby” and wearing it all day. If you actually watched the CNN analysis you would know it was 75%+ positive, 95%+ positive if you culled the maga morons who would never under any circumstances praise her performance. 100%+ positive if she was judged the same way the twice impeached felonious rapist and fascist pedophile is.
Funny you skipped the non maga commentary discussing the double standards those idiots are applying…summed up well with “you accept him being lawless but insist she must be flawless”. One holds a town hall with Trumpists live and converts many, one has a Q&A session with only vetted maggots but still with no questions just swaying to music for 45 minutes in a stupor.
She summed up the entire race and difference between the candidates perfectly by saying…
“Donald Trump will have an enemies list, and I will have a “to do” list.”
Nothing could be more true. One campaign is 100% grievance and scapegoating with fake issues like CRT and threats to use the military against political rivals (and just spent 4 years proving it), one is focusing on solutions to real issues that actually effect American freedoms and the economy.
Hate to tell you, but the flood of fake right wing polls aren’t going to save him (the same fake polls that predicted the ‘22 red tsunami). Real polls are putting the results at as good as 55% Harris-30% Fascist Felon. Not a single reputable poll has the felon ahead more than the margin of error, and most show her ahead well above the margin of error. I know, you didn’t pass algebra, why am I talking statistics that are clearly too advanced for you? Maybe someone will explain it.
Such a sad little boy. Completely lost the ability to think for yourself, or at all, now you throw tantrums with cut and paste arguments that were losing arguments when they were first attempted and by the time you regurgitate them are debunked in every way and make you look ridiculous. Every lie you attempt relies on your listener to be as ignorant as you are, and that’s nearly impossible without being in a coma so your attempts fall flat every single time.
Derp!
Fake new trying hard to tank Trump. Wont work.
CNN town hall with VP Harris Tanked so bad that CNN turned on her.

There are no standards like double standards...
Wikipedia's Bias
Um….what?!
Read what you wrote here, Bob….and then try to say you aren’t a dumb shit without grinning.
Testy? Shirley, you jest! You’ve seen me testy, that ain’t it.
Tired of your ridiculous double standards and deflection from actual crimes against America (that you completely ignore) with unprovable nonsense about a family member who isn’t part of the administration. If everything Hunter is accused of were proven 100% true, it would still be 100% irrelevant and minor crimes compared to the Trump syndicate.
Also tired of illiterate asshats who shower us with stupid right wing propaganda they clearly don’t even watch themselves….as if anyone here wants that, believes a word of it, or can’t see through the tissue thin lies they contain. Only you buddy, only you. (And your sock puppet brigade)
LMFAHS!! Real communists wouldn’t PAY for propaganda…real communists wouldn’t want to be paid! I don’t think you know what communism is.
I wish someone would pay me for my $.02, but I don’t really think I could make a profit on that transaction.
Try again Bobski….this time get your handler to at least check for lucidity since they clearly won’t check your spelling or grammar.
Newt you, as Wikipedia most prolific spin masters, one can understand why your denial is so strong.
I'm not a dumb shit. I just buy the shit your selling.
This must cut close to home -- you are so testy on this ...
You a Commie TOOL arn't you ? You still getting those checks from the communist party for all the false information you spin?
The Walk.
For a 9 month employment, getting the start year and end year wrong by one year each, and not mentioning the true start date was late December, that's a pretty big lie to start with.
I've heard nothing of this alleged Larry King call....link? No recording, or any details that don't match her first iteration of this constantly morphing story? ...don't bother mentioning it or it just sounds like desperation.
Um....1) Ford had written contemporaneous notes about her attack.
2) Ford's FIRST HAND WITNESSES, not people she told a story years later, were mostly NOT HEARD, AND WEREN'T GOOD ENOUGH.
Yes, the double standard is quite conspicuous....but it's the Right's blatant double standard.
One likely attack with a credible professional accuser, multiple first hand witnesses unheard and contemporary evidence is ignored and denied even a full hearing, and one changing accusation of a totally unbelievable public attack in the halls of congress made by a non credible accuser with no witnesses, no evidence, and who never brought up her attack before even though her attacker has had constant elections for high office including VP twice...even when she was part of a group making other public accusations against the same man, her accusations are to be believed?!
You really have some nerve implying the double standard comes from the Left here. Such bullshit.
MAYBE she exaggerates?!? There's no MAYBE about it. Everything about her claims scream political lie from a proven liar. I can't fathom why anyone ever listened to her unbelievable story except out of desperation, needing so badly to have a Biden abuse story to counter Trump's decades long history of real abuses, both on tape and bragged about in multiple interviews like forcing his way into dressing rooms at his beauty pageants to ogle underage girls as they dress, trying hard to Fuck his friend's wives while he's married, forcibly finger banging any woman he finds attractive, all the way to multiple rape cases in court now.
I meant the start and stop year are each off by 1.
Circumstantially it looks like maybe her mom called Larry King Live to ask for guidance way back in 1993 (the content of the exchange matches, as does the date, but no names were given). Could be unrelated.
Supposedly neighbors were told. Again, who knows.
If zero corroboration was good enough for Ford (Named first hand witnesses said they remember nothing of the sort), then maybe it's only fair to give Reade the same benefit of the doubt?
The double standard is quite conspicuous.
Personally, I wouldn't condemn anyone without physical measurable evidence on which to decide. Talk is cheap.
Maybe she does exaggerate. She wouldn't be the first.

Legislative aide - Coordinate and attend meetings. Assist with the drafting of speeches, press releases and legislation. Conduct and summarize legal research, research studies and constituent surveys.
Her position - mail clerk and supervising interns.
Nowhere near the same thing. Like the receptionist putting "VP of communications and publications" as their title.
91-94 is up to 4 years, she worked for him for 9 months. That's a 3.25 year exaggeration, not one, which would itself be more than doubling the truth.
Um...you think?! Yes, it's bad when your college says you didn't graduate, and a lie when you say you did. I don't think her cases would all be under review over a database problem.
Her current accusations ARE brand new, never coming to light in 30 years of Biden running for offices, including VP. They absolutely did totally pop up out of nowhere at a suspiciously convenient time in politics....and are bat shit crazy, forcefully fingered in a public alcove in the public halls of congress. Get real.
Edit: the long and short is she's not credible, at best she's shown a willingness to hyper exaggerate if it benefits her, more likely she's a bold faced liar who may have been paid to make accusations.
President Carter on Trump, Russia, and the Election
Yes, including Republicans like Comey at the FBI who said it's improper to discuss ongoing investigations like the Trump/Russia investigation publicly, but it's fine to go after Clinton days before the election, even though there was zero crime there and zero new evidence found to imply there might have been.
The double standards are impossibly divergent.
If I remember correctly, Obama couldn't get much done with the repubs blocking him every chance they could. In spite of that uphill battle, I think Obama did pretty well.
Why play regular Tic Tac Toe when you can objectify Men
It's that whole double standard of, "no it's okay because she's gay!"
Honestly though, I could care less, have fun.

Clearly there's a double standard.
Rape charge dropped against USC student after video surfaces
He had been drinking.
She initiated the contact.
She pulled him along and took him home for sex.
So she raped him.
Where are the angry anti rapists chanting "lock her up, lock her up, lock her up."
It's disgusting the ridiculous double standards we put on issues like this in the name of equality. Outrage at the story that he took a drunk girl home for sex, totally dismissive when it turns out that she actually did what he was accused of.
Should Disney rehire James Gunn?
Shit, if a tweet is enough to have Rosanne fired from her show, his tweets should be enough to have him fired.
Double standards much?
The Harms of Marijuana
Wow. Little to no evidence of smoked marijuana having any connection to lung or other cancers.

I must admit I'm surprised. To me it seems like burning something and inhaling the smoke is "obviously" a bad idea with regards to health.
Since the link between tobacco cigarettes and cancer is well established and agreed on by doctors, it makes one wonder what the difference is. Is it entirely the additives that cigarette manufacturers put into cigarettes? If so, why the hell wouldn't there be massive pressure to mass produce additive-free cigarettes at least as an option for smokers?
Also, I guess one (potential) downside of legalization is that the same sort of corporations that knowingly put cancer-causing shit into cigarettes might expand into marijuana territory, potentially trying to put crap into your pot that dispensaries and dealers never have.
Still, overall this is clearly good news for pot fans out there, and will put further pressure on the double standard between legal-but-far-more-dangerous alcohol and tobacco as compared to illegal-but-relatively-innocuous pot. Congratulations! Light one up in celebration (as if you needed a reason).
Bill Maher - Sen. Bernie Sanders
How do they take our money? Half the people who work for Walmart qualify for food stamps, even though they make so much money they could easily pay living wages, give benefits and still make a profit. This happens at big companies all across the country. That's how they take our money. But you, as a Christian, don't give a crap about those employees, they just better get another job and work 80 hours a week, so they don't have to get food stamps, just so the rich people running these companies and the shareholders can continue to reap in the huge amounts of money. Who cares Jesus commanded you to help the poor, and that the rich were going to hell, in modern Christian culture it is the rich who are blessed, and the poor who need to be vilified.
I'd wager most of us are working, probably 40 hours or more. Used to be that one person in the family working 40 hours a week was enough. Now that isn't enough in most cases. That money moved to the top. We have one of the largest and fastest growing wealth and income gaps in the world, and in history. Real world income isn't staying with inflation, but that 1% that modern Christians love so much, is staying so far ahead of the curve.
And as to, "they like making $8 an hour" bull fucking shit. While I'm making well more than that, I know that isn't true. They got the best job they can get. It's not that people aren't applying for the jobs that are out there, the employers aren't hiring the people applying. Perhaps that person making $8 an hour doesn't have a college degree, and can't afford to go to college. I have a worthless bachelor's degree in "programming and applications" which basically means I know how to use Word, which I knew before I had it (I could have taught even the programming classes for all the further we got into the programming). That degree cost me near $25k, and who knows how much it'll cost by the time I'm done paying it off with all the interest on it. Back on point, those people can apply to a ton of jobs, but unless they are qualified they won't get it, and even among those they do qualify for, there are a ton of applicants for each job out there. Nobody is working Walmart, McDonald's, Lowes or whatever because it's their dream job. It's the job they can get.
Why should you make a living off 40 hours a week, but they should have to work 80? Why the double standard? Why say let the rich owners and shareholders take that income that used to go to the workers and just say f the employees, so long as I make a living at 40, those people better just work longer. This is why I HATE Christianity because every person who thinks that is a Christian. Every person who thinks that LGBTQIA+ people shouldn't have equal rights under the law is a Christian. Every person who was shouting "let him die" at the Republican debate in '08 in regards to a guy without insurance, was a pro-life Christian. Every person who cheered at the idea of carpet bombing at the 16' debates were pro-life Christians. It's why, in the unlikely event it is real, I'd rather burn in hell than be around those people for all eternity. I've never met a good right-wing Christian. Never. They are all evil vile people who are full of greed and have zero of the love of Christ. Their witness is a shining example of how evil and vile Christianity is.
I'm surprised that fat tub of lard Trump, who dictated his son's letter, who dictated his Doctor's letter, can swing a golf club as often as he does... a guy who bitched and moaned about how often Obama golfed, and who's own golfing and vacation time has far outdone Obama's golfing and vacation time.
We got a President, flagrantly breaking the emoluments clause, and nobody seems to give a rats ass (save a few on the further end of the left, certainly the mainstream media, which Fox and the right accuse of being far left, doesn't care, nor do even moderate Democrats).
I know you don't believe he, or Fox and the like are the ones doing the lies and deceit... and nobody will ever convince you otherwise. I know, because I too once was a far-right Christian, who only trusted Fox, and thought the science of climate change was a joke, as was evolution and the big bang (though I was an old earth creationist, I could never get into the 6,000-10,000-year-old argument)... then I learned to actually vet my news and information. I have no doubt that most of my anger at the right is the fact I was so easily deceived for over 30, nearly 40 years of my life. Hopefully, in the highly unlikely event that others on the right learn that they are the ones who've been lied to, that they are the ones more guilty of spreading falsehoods, deceit, greed, and setting a horribly bad witness for their faith that does far more harm than good, they don't get as angry as I did and leave the faith all together and then hate all of what they once were a part of.
Our Money? How does the 1% take our money?
Bill Gates getting 1$ per copy of windows.
Jeff Bezo getting 3 cents from every product.
This is the 1% and and you consider that this is ripping off the 99%?
No one is stealing YOUR money ( except Government). GET off you ASS and make more. No one is stopping you.
Those making 8$/hr like making 8$/hr otherwise they will find a better paying job. AT 3.9% unemployment rate this should not be hard to do. You can thank MR. Trump for that.
Republican Tax Scam Is Handwritten Nonsense
Can't think of anything to say to my previous post Bob? Can you explain why you support a party that raises taxes for the poor to give to the rich? Did Jesus teach you that? He would be disgusted by people like you.
And can you explain why you support a president who is a debaucherous lecher? Will you yell "Boss TRUMP!" when he grabs your loved ones by the pussy? And why are you full of double standards and make excuses to support a pedophile?
It's because you are a hypocrite and you have no morals Bob.
Your right Dems don't do tax reform-- They just raise taxes
Senator Ernie Chambers The "N" Word at Omaha Public Schools
I get the theory, but that's just not how real life works. Telling people 'I may do "X, but you may not because you aren't the right race' is never an acceptable argument, won't get you much cooperation, nor does it show the proper disdain for that mindset that has been so disastrously used against minorities historically.
Edit: Also, this makes a HUGE mistake of thinking all black people agree, like they're all alike. That couldn't be farther from the truth, they are not unified on this issue, they, like everyone else, are diverse in their thinking.
If people insist on fairness and equality, they'll get far more support and far less opposition from fair minded people. Change the meaning of the word like we did with "fag" (now meaning Harley Davidson riders), sure, but not just for one group. Insisting on a double standard means they don't have a problem with double standards that work in their favor. That loses them the support of people who believe in equality and hate double standards with passion.
I think his point is that it should be black people deciding how and when the word is used, if at all, and your and my feelings on the matter (as people who haven't had to live every day of their lives with racial oppression) shouldn't really matter much.
I agree with him. Let black people decide themselves whether to let the word die or to reinvent it. Who knows, maybe someday we'll get to a point were the pain of racial oppression recedes so far that everyone will be able to use the word as a term of endearment for their friends.
But we certainly are no where near that point yet.
